Chicago Gameday XVI: the aftermath!

[rvalle]

Please sign me up for Slot 1 game 7 "THE REDCOATS GIANT, FRICKIN' ELEPHANTS WITH CITIES ON THEIR BACKS ARE COMING!!!"

By the way... Wilimac's quote should be (closing eyes) "I wish I was my normal halfling self!"

And Slot 2 game 3
"The Century Club Chronicles: The New Centurions Versus the Sun of E.V.I.L.," GM: FCWesel

TracerBullet42, bigznak, sw3333, William Ronald, Yort, Kelleris, Ninjacat, JoeGKushner, Pbartender, AstroCat, Keibot, Vyvyan Basterd, Vyvyan Basterd's wife, rvalle... ADDED!

We also have a winner in the "First Event To Fill Up" category... mine! I even expanded it to eight players; let's hope it's not too much of a disaster.

Second place... Mark CMG's "Caverns of the Condemned"! Congrats, Mark.

Looks like Trev Cthulhu game and rowport's D&D Animated are vying for third.

Ok, change in plans after consulting with the wife... let's do this:

AstoCat and Keibot
Game 2: Death in the Tombs of Moldvay
Basic D&D (1980)

AstroCat and Keibot:
Game 1: The Iron Heroes vs. The Tomb of Horrors

So, we will leave Gamma World to a more reasonable 6 players and play some old school D&D instead of Cthulhu.

Thanks for the help.

Changes made... though don't feel like you had to drop out of the GW game. I've wrangled groups that large before.

IH and D&D:Animated are now neck-and-neck for third!

 

[AstroCat]

Don't forget to move Keibot out of:

Game 3: Summer Road Trip
Call of Cthulhu d20

wouldn't want to have someone not get in that wants to play.

I felt bad making it 8 players for GW, I know people would have to wait a lot more before they could play with that many people. Thanks though.

Ah, I couldn't remember the exact quote.

I need a favor from you...roll a d% and let me know what you get.

Holy cow, those slots are going *fast*! Whee! Buzz, please sign me up for your Gamma World game in Slot 2. I am fuzzy on your number of slots, so my second choice is Iron Heroes.

Edit: Possible correction depending on number of slots in Buzz's game!

Congratulations, Buzz!!!

One thing that I have done that has helped for large events is to add more support for the villains in the terms of henchmen, and have a slight increase in the power of single creatures in encounters.

As for additional character ideas, you could try a talking, mobile tree that throws fruit, a winged monkey, or maybe draw on a few ideas from the resources at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Oz_books .
